I wrote a boat load of prose during my 13 months of hellacious hospitalization at The Arizona State Hospital, generally specific to my experiences as they were occurring there, and I have continued to produce poems and other like literary expressions specific to ASH since my February, 2012, discharge. The following three poems are included in this blog as indicated below, and are due to published in print in 14 days. Black on Red are blog article title and publish date in the blog itself (for full poems see blog directory and locate by publish date); and Purple are poem title and date/place of creation.

I would really love input of any kind from anybody with any interest whatsoever in the issues that I am sharing in this blog. I mean it, anybody, for I will be the first one to admit that I may be inaccurately depicting certain aspects of the conditions
at ASH, and anonymous comments are fine. In any case, I am more than willing to value anybody's feelings about my writing, and I assure you that I will not intentionally exploit or otherwise abuse your right to express yourself as you deem fit. This topic is far, far too important for anything less. Thank you, whoever you are. Peace and Frogs.
